I tried using gmplayer, where is the option to specify device manually?

I tried the play VCD option but got a similar error. I also tried using xine but i could not succeed playing from cd writer. When i put the cd in the cdrom it plays fine using xine.

Hello,

I tried using xmms player to play audio cd's but still i am not able to hear any sound , it shows that the track is been played but i dont hear any sound. I seems strange because i am able to hear sound while playing mp3 files using xmms and also i am able to hear sound while video cd using mplayer.

I also tried various audio cds but with no success, and i am able to hear the sound when i play these audio cds in windows XP.

Hi,

I am able to hear the sound when i use xmms to play mp3 files on my harddrive and also i am getting the sound when playing vcd using mplayer. I dont see a sound mute option in audio CD player. Which sound option did u mean?

Thanks,
Christopher.

Hi,

I am using RH9, when i insert a audio cd the CD player starts automatically and it shows the track being played but i am not able to hear any sound, i tried increasing the volume bar but i could not hear anything.

I am able to hear system sounds and events, and even play movies with mplayer with sound, only with this CD player i am not getting any sound.

I have even kept the system master volume to maximum, what else could be the problem, when i am able to hear sounds using xmms,mplayer etc.

Please help me i am not able to play any audio cds.

Thanks,
Christopher.

Hi,
 
I am using redhat 9 along with windows XP, i am planning to upgrade from RedHat 9 to ES 4.  I have a few questions:

I have four cd's of RedHat ES4 version.

1. Can anyone give me a step by step to upgrade i am fairly new to linux. Is it possible to just upgrade?, i dont want to reinstall.

2. will all the software which i have installed previously(on redhat 9) still be there if i upgrade.

3. I am especially confused about partitions(boot, swap etc), please help.

Thanks & Regards,
Christopher.

Try to connect two machines via ethernet for file transfer purpose.
'Ifconfig' shows eth0 to be alive & well
on both sides and if I ping i am able to ping to the machine. But i dont know how to share files please help me...

the machine ip address are 192.168.100.14 and 192.168.100.2, i am able to ping to these machines from one another. I want to copy some files from 192.168.100.2 to 192.168.100.14. How to do it?

Thanks,

Hello,

I got the error "fs type ntfs not supported by kernel", while booting the system. I tried to mount three NTFS drives and all three gave the same error, while I am able to mount FAT32 drives without any problem.

Regards,
Christopher.

Hello,

I downloaded the patch kernel-ntfs-2.4.20-13.7smp.i386.rpm and installed it but it still does not work. I followed the method which you provided
/dev/hda1               /mnt/c                  ntfs    users,owner,ro,umask=000    0 0

Regards,
Christopher.

Dear Abhinav,

Please try the following procedure:
1. create a script file called upnet.sh (used for connecting)with the following contents

# ! /bin/bash
echo "user internet password internet" > $HOME/.ppprc
pppd /dev/ttyS0 115200 debug usepeerdns defaultroute noauth connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v "" at+crm=1 OK "atdt#777" CONNECT' mtu 264

2. create another script file called downnet.sh(used for disconnecting) with the following contents

# !/bin/bash
killall -9 pppd
3. now you have to specify the dns server name in the file called resolv.conf which you have to create in the /etc directory.

if you dont know the dns server name you can follow this:
if you have windows OS, connect to the net , open a commond prompt and type ipconfig /all it gives ur primary DNS and secondary DNS note it down.

In the linux platform open the resolv.conf file and type
nameserver=the  primary DNS no u got in windows
nameserver=the  secondary DNS no u got in windows

NOW U CAN RUN upnet.sh TO CONNECT TO THE NET.

Regards,
Christopher.
